In this video installation we envision Madrid as the stage for a choreography of control and surveillance spaces. We made two simultaneous video records, the first one from the traffic control cameras of the Madrid City Hall.The second one was made from a bike which makes a route around Madrid. Both records reproduce the same route around Madrid from different points of view. Madrid turns into the main protagonist of this pursuit in its streets. The simultaneousness of the 2 records produces a perception tramp which makes audience believe that everything is happening in real time.
